SIMpad forum / Erasing Flash Cl4

« on: December 19, 2005, 04:36:34 am »

Hi,

I agree. I need a new bootloader. The problem  I have is that serload used to work and since I uploaded the 2.5.1 bootloader for a 16MB CL4 onto my 32MB  CL4 the serload utility no longer works.

I was able to install the 2.5.1 bootloader via serload so I don't think the problem is on the PC side.

I would like to get back to the original bootloader. The only way I can imagine doing that is by JTAG (I don't have the material) or finding a way to use Windows CE to install the orignal bootloader.

Does anyone know if there is a Windows CE application which can replace the bootloader ?

Thanks,
     Mark

Hi I tried following the instructions for a serial install with a CL4

In the monitor program I don't see the option for erasing the flash.

serload seems to no longer be able to respond to the download request from the CL4.

Would someone be able to exaplin the mistake I am making ?

Thanks.
